Easy Crochet Beanie for Man or Woman - Quicksilver Beanie

[@susanbaker902]

I have decided why I love your tutorials more than most instructors. You aren’t afraid to ‘pull’ open the stitches so we can see the correct stitch to place the hook. For example, on round 3, the stitch after the FPDC is sort of hidden. Once you pulled open the stitches it makes it easy to see the correct placement and have the correct number of stitches per round. Thank you for making your tutorials so easy to understand.

[@wizzardofpaws2420]

And mostly for me, she's easy to understand. Some of these folks don't speak good english and I can't understand.

[@momofmany42]

Where do you find her pattern?

[@roseannetracy9990]

Very Beautiful Ms. Crystal ❤❤❤❤

[@ConstantlyEvolvingDoor]

A couple more things I love are that you take your time crocheting the individual stitches, like some videos still feel like people are trying to show how fast they can make a stitch, which is fine except for when like you mention here you’re trying to figure out where they are placing the stitch. And another thing I love that I’ve seen in other tutorials of hers is that she always says essentially you know do what you can, it doesn’t have to be perfect to be a nice crochet item

[@leslieholmes6290]

I like that Chrystal talks like your right there with her like your crochet together

[@seewendemu]

I wear bifocals and your camera work is TOP NOTCH. You are an excellent caring teacher/crafter.

[@bluerosecrystalsoul]

It only took me a few seconds to know that I’ll be crocheting this beanie - so super COOL!!🥰👏🧶💝

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

Thank you 😊

[@tatianabrown6903]

Thank you! This one I will make it asap! ❤

[@lindawright2975]

Luv this1❤

[@lindawright2975]

You really look good in the red hat ir makes u glow ❣️💥

[@YARNBARF]

Is there any way that I can use the Coffee Shop yarn to make this beanie? It is a 3 weught yarn. I would love to make some hats for my FedEx and Amazon drivers to show my appreciation to their hard work for me. Since they are all men, the cap can't look "girly". I have a good smount of Coffee Shop yarn but I need a hat pattern that I can use that 3 weight yarn. Do you have any suggestions, Crystal? Thank you so much for all you do!!

[@i_am_chaplin]

Not everyone knows how to teach, but Chystal has that special gift for teaching. I'm completely obsessed with making her beanies! I'm enjoying her tutorials so much! I'm on beanie number six. I'm working my way to making (gasp) one of her ponchos. She's so incredibly talented and so nice and friendly. So glad I found her on KZbin! Thanks Chrystal! 😊❤️

[@cindyracobs5839]

Great beanie tutorial. Counting is important after every row as I missed a stitch in rounds 5&6. This is the 5th beanie I have made from your tutorials. All fit perfectly.

[@shelleysmith4017]

Thank you for this Crystal! I hope you don’t mind but I will be making this beanie for the ladies in need. I don’t go outside much in the winter, so have no need for beanies myself, but I make them for friends, family and for others, and most especially for the homeless and families who have had to relocate due to escaping from domestic abuse and are just restarting their lives with next to no money. I like to mix up the patterns as well as the colors so folks have a choice of something that appeals to them instead of everyone having the one same generic beanie and it keeps me from getting bored just repeating one pattern constantly. This is so beautiful and l think it will be a big hit. Thank you for sharing! ❤

[@heidigeib2660]

I also make hats for the homeless every year. Love all the variety of hats Crystal has.

[@Pickles6115]

Me too, I don't go out much since battling breast cancer twice. But the good Lord help me beat it. I make them for our homeless shelter, women and children and cancer patients. I adore Crystal and how she shares her hat tutorials.

[@reneekorb3236]

I'm really struggling with round 4! Have done it several times and I end up with a lot more stitches than 48. Any suggestions?

[@shirleysmythe4414]

Can you include the pattern for printing? I would like to try it…

[@Molly8899]

@@reneekorb3236I struggled with this at first, I was accidentally putting my front post stitches in the same stitch as the regular dc (like you do for the increases) instead of going to the post of the NEXT stitch. It makes it seem like you’re skipping, but you’re not.

[@0707Denisem]

Thank you, Crystal. Your tutorials are fantastic! You make a point of showing just where the stitches are and where to put our hooks. I’ve always avoided making knit hats because I always managed to lose stitches in the round and then just gave up. Your videos and explanations are clear. In addition, you go slowly and use close-ups to really show the stitches. You’re fabulous. Thank you for sharing your talent with all of us.

[@pattaylor5713]

I love this Quicksilver beanie. I will be making this for all my 6 great grandchildren. Thank you so much, you are a great teacher.

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

Thank you so much!

[@Raineyluwho]

Yup, this is next! It jumped the line! I will be making 4 of these plus 7 others made from your tutorials, which I thank you for. 💜

[@judylake8464]

As soon as I saw this beanie, I knew that I would be incorporating it into my selection of hats that I make and donate to my local hospital's nursery and NICU. Thanks again, Crystal, for yet another wonderful tutorial.

[@clbedwell]

Yay! You finally have a tutorial for this hat! I took one of your previous hats and started it similar to this one and then continued in the ribbing pattern for the rest of the hat. I have finished some with single crochet, some with half double crochet, or no finishing at all. Love the ribbing all the way down the hat.

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

Thank you!

[@KimsKloset2022]

Thanks for taking the time and energy to put this tutorial together. I appreciate all you do!

[@tamaralynn121]

I’m crocheting hats to donate and this was a quick and easy pattern!! I consider myself a beginner, only have been crocheting just over a year so I feel anyone is able to complete this! Thank you!!!!

[@jilliem]

Thanks for another great pattern!

[@cor3944]

I did your last Beannie and I immediately did this one. Amazing outcome ❤ ❤❤Thank you very much! Blessings to you!

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

Thanks 😊

[@LadyDee150]

This is indeed a beautiful pattern, but I realize I would have be mindful as I work through it, so I'll just listen and watch this time and then rewatch to do the actual pattern. Thank you for all you do to teach us unusual and unique techniques💕💕

[@lyndacordova7492]

Love this, beanie. It is cute and fast to make. Thank you, Crystal, for another great pattern.

[@kennedyana1]

Thank you Crystal , beginner here, but I’ve already made 8 hats. Your tutorials are great. ❤

[@roserenik6375]

Watched twice and the second time I did the tutorial along with you until row 9, then I continued working on it after the tutorial. It is a great tutorial and an easy pattern to make. Thank you for all your hard work in making your tutorials 💜

[@Pammy_Yolo]

I wear beanies all winter because we get a lot of snow and it's very cold here in Reno (in the Silver state!)hills. I will definitely be making this! Ty Crystal ❤❤❤

[@kellip625]

Love it love it love it!!!!!! I appreciate that so many of your beanies are worked top down!!!!!! I can whip through them so easily!!!!!

[@susanwagner1745]

I can’t believe it, I just made this on my own! Except I modified with a hole in the 8th row to become a pony tail beanie! I will post a picture on your Facebook page!!

[@crystalsullivan134]

I LOVE how you teach . This is my most FAVORITE tutorial. You explain perfectly

[@Gospelmama1940]

Our church is preparing "care bags" for homeless men and women and crochet beanies are included. I plan to use all of my stash for this project so will be stitching these in 2024. Have crocheted for years but mostly flat work. Looking forward to doing something beneficial for some folks in need. Thanks Crystal. I watch your channel often.

[@karlagroom9715]

Love the beanie in one color. The stitch is the star of the show 🤩 Will definitely make one, or 2 or 3…I have a white yarn waiting for this beanie 🎉

[@helenwilson9427]

I really like your tutorial, you really pull the stitches apart and tell us where to put our crochet hook, and really close up to, your a good teacher, thanks again ❤❤😊

[@theresaconley3455]

I love the way your hats fit

[@ashleygarrison5349]

Thank you. I love making hats from the top down.

[@shanaanzai3494]

What a great hat. I made one in white and it turned really nice. you must crochet really tight because I had to use a G hook to match the gauge. Thx for the pattern.

[@sanyasha217]

Thank you I crochet this for my mom she is very happy n wants a second one in a different colour. Thank you for sharing. ✨♥️

I'm so frustrated. I keep coming up with 70 for row 6.

Hi Crystal! Thank you for another great tutorial! You are a talented woman. Thank you for sharing your gift with us. God bless you!

[@BAGODAYCROCHET]

Thank you! You too!

[@babygrandma8654]

This is super cute. I started it a few hours ago and am about 1/2 way done. I don't know what my problem was but for some reason I couldn't get row 3 to come out right. I frogged it 2 times. On the 3rd try finally got it. Row 2 was perfect so no need to frog row 1 or 2. After that little problem, the rest of the rows came out fine on the first go around. Sometimes stuff like this just happens to me. I hope to have it finished tomorrow. Thanks Crystal 💛👍

[@IAMvlagattuta]

You always make the increase in post stitches so easy! Thank you Crystal. I love the new pattern.

[@brinabrina77]

I have only been crocheting for about 9 months. It's mostly been amigurumi. I wanted to try to make this beanie, but at first glance the design looked soooo intimidating!! I gave it a try anyway. 👍Good news: Your video made this SO easy. I can't believe this was made essentially using only SC and DC!! This was my first "post" stitch too. Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU! for making such an easy-to-follow video. ☝🤓(kinda) Bad news: I predict that my family is going to be absolutely sick of me. Everyone is getting this beanie. My mom, my brother,s friends, the mailman....even the dog is gonna get one if he can hold still long enough for me to estimate his head size. Thank you again. I am going to stalk your channel and find more things to crochet. You are MARVELOUS!!

[@Diane18]

Hi Crystal! Love your channel and your designs. You are an excellent teacher. Thank you for repeating the sequence of increases-it helps so much!

I am doing this for my brother, grandpa and dad! I have another brother but he's in the military so I wont make his until he returns :) Ty for all that you do I learned so much about crocheting just by watching videos! :)))))

[@socgrrrl]

omg, i just almost finished (got to the SC at the end) this and then had to frog it. As I was going along I kept thinking to myself, "oh, this will look better once I add the border. Oops, no. 😫😂 I really like the look of this hat, but maybe it's not for me. It's comically large on my head. lol. I must have a small head. I have to figure out how to make this smaller for myself. I think I have to stop well before 72 stitches. I'll try again. 🥴 I love how quickly it works up and the tutorial is A+ (as always). I just wish that I didn't have a tiny head. haha.
